Question
Rafters of Douglas fir–larch, No. 2 grade, are to be used
at 16 in. spacing for a span of 20 ft. Solid wood blocking is provided
for nailing of the plywood deck panels. Live load without snow is
20 psf and the total dead load, including the rafters, is 15 psf. Find
the minimum size for the rafters, based only on bending stress.

The moduli of elasticity of the timber and the steel are 1790 ksi and 28300 ksi, respectively. The simply supported beam spans a distance of 18 ft and carries two concentrated loads P, which are applied as shown. Assume LAB = LCD= 4 ft, LBc = 10 ft, b = 2.4 in., d = 10 in. and t = 0.6 in. (a) Determine the maximum bending stresses o,, o, produced in the timber planks and the steel plate if P = 3.4 kips. (b) Assume that the allowable bending stresses of the timber and the steel are 1450 psi and 25000 psi, respectively. Determine the largest acceptable magnitude for concentrated loads P.
